  • What a fantastic shot! I like that her hair looks like it could be a soldiers hat too! (And her uniform is reversed…)

  • Joan Elizabeth says:

    What a brilliant capture … the door was interesting enough on it’s own but with the lady in the perfectly right garb walking through it … amazing.

  • this is an awesome doorway. this is one of the best murals I have seen. good eye to find this doorway and art mural

  • Is the Beefeater to protect the ladies room. Nice capture. Happy theme day.

  • Leif Hagen says:

    I love the contrast of her outfit and “his” outfit! Fun doorway for theme day! Great capture!

  • Did this lady have a clue? Her outfit even matches!

  • Jilly says:

    Brilliant! This is fall about funny and perfectly captured with the lady coming out of the loo, even down to her red pants that emphasize the red in the mural. Just love it. Perfection for today. I love the humour of the artist and your photograph.

    Color matching and nice details… Big smile from me in Norway.

  • Thats a great hit on your cam !!! Hey ladies you can go without fear we have a guard out there !!

  • Amy says:

    that’s funny, can i say the lady doesn’t look much different from the painting lol

  • Hilda says:

    Heeheehee! Oh I love this! How long did you have to wait to get someone in black and red? Fun capture!

  • Perfect. I hope you did not get accused of stalking for standing outside a ladies room with a camera.

    Was there a similar painting outside the men’s room?

    My wife and I were in Auckland last year. Beautiful city and country.

    Great capture, Lacho, and perfect sense of humor! The lady looks very strict, be careful! :) Cheers!

  • Ben says:

    Love it a lot! What a finest moment, Lachezar. I don’t know if you waited someone to come out(or in), but you were well reworded! Great shot!

    Hallarious .. great photo and bravo to the lady in the photo for being a good sport.

  • Mitch says:

    Are you kidding?! Is that natural? She’s perfect, colors, hair, stride… you are either a clever stager or darn lucky. Either way, great theme shot!
